UNIVERSITY COLLEGE MUSIC ASSOCIATION MALAYSIA
Non Profit Organisation for Students Music
The University College Music Association of Malaysia (UCMA), is a non-profit association and was established in February 2017 with one simple goal which is to bring stability to the presence and status of music production amongst varsity students. The association vows to promote the creativity of said students using various local and international platforms. Hence, we aim to work closely together with established musicians in Malaysia to educate students on music production and to provide students with practical ways on how they can venture into the actual music industry.

「旋。樂」第一屆音樂交流營
UCMA催起第一次跨校園音樂交流
全馬14所大專齊聚一堂，65位營員於第一屆全國大專音樂交流營《旋·樂》進行腦力激盪，音樂交流。3個小時腦力激盪的成品吸引音樂公司，音樂老師更覺得其成果可以轉賣線上歌手呈現。
由全國大專音樂聯盟（大專音聯／UCMA）主催，新紀元大學學院學生會與屬下音樂團體I Do 音樂社聯合主辦的第一屆全國大專音樂交流營，成功於上個星期六（7月8 － 9日）在新紀元大學學院圓滿落幕。
此交流營吸引來自全馬不同大專院校旗下的音樂工作坊幹部和會員，以及喜歡音樂創作的同學，其中包括遠道而來的沙巴大學音古貝特（Incubator）、霹靂金寶拉曼大學安巴爾創作坊（Unbarred）、南方大學尋音社（Music Seeker）、馬六甲多媒體大學音樂工作坊（Sky Crescendo），新紀元大學學院旗下音樂社I Do 音樂社等14所大学。
我国大专音乐工作坊長期以來處在校園內交流，甚少跨校交流，因此大專音聯除了積極尋找為大專生的一個表演平台外，也希望可以透過音樂交流營，讓來自不同大專院校的同學們進行音樂上的交流，大專音聯相信只要透過交流，才能夠達到拋磚引玉的效果。
為了提供大專生在音樂上一個交流的平台，全國大專音樂聯盟（UCMA）決定主催這一次的交流營，並由新紀元大學學院承辦這一項活動。交流營除了吸引全國各地的營員外，同時也邀請了8位本地資深的音樂人擔任交流營的導師，其中包括羅憶詩、楊朝焰、陳彥琿、鄭可望、王炳智、楊智中、Aki 黃淑惠及王彪民。
「旋·樂」開幕典禮也星光熠熠，邀請了新紀元大學學院副校長- 李錦興、榮譽贊助APE - Chee How、合作媒體 988電台- 王彪民、營長- 葉添鴻、顧問兼副營長- 孫雪莉和主席- 劉智晃進行開幕儀式，以行動表示支持大專原創！

About the event
(Sept 10, Kuala Lumpur) A Songwriting and Rearrangement Workshop organized by the Malaysia University College Music Association (UCMA), was held on Sep 10 at the MATRADE Exhibition & Convention Centre, Kuala Lumpur. This event was part of the Southeast Asia Music Exchange 2017 (SEAMEX) program that was held at MATRADE. SEAMEX is an organization which aims to highlight Southeast Asian music for music faculties and students in the region.
Led by Lim Ee Lin and Lee Zhi Ling, the Secretary General of External Affairs and Internal Affairs respectively of UCMA, the event successfully saw five local universities and colleges from Malaysia attend the workshop. Prior to the workshop, UCMA conducted a song collection process and had received more than 30 original demo submissions. Due to time limitation, only five songs could be shortlisted for the workshop to ensure that participants who came for the workshop could fully benefit from the session. Among the institutions of higher learning who came were students hailing from UTAR Sg Long, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TARUC), KDU College and Universiti Sains Malaysia (Science Engineering Faculty).
